ED Decision 2003/18/RM
(a) Furnishing information. A Flight Manual must be furnished with each aeroplane. There must be an appropriate location for stowage of the Flight Manual aboard the aeroplane and each Flight Manual must contain the following:
(1) Information required in CS-VLA 1583 to 1589 including the explanation necessary for their proper use and the significance of the symbols used.
(2) Other information that is necessary for safe operation because of design operating or handling characteristics, including the effect of rain and insects accumulation on flight characteristics and performances as determined under CS-VLA 21(d).
(3) A list of effective pages, with identification of those containing approved information according to sub-paragraph (b) of this paragraph.
(b) Approved information. Each part of the Flight Manual containing information prescribed in CS-VLA 1583 to 1587(a) must be limited to such information and must be approved, identified and clearly distinguished from each other part of the Flight Manual. All Manual material must be of a type that is not easily erased, disfigured or misplaced, and it must be in the form of individual sheets capable of being inserted in a Manual provided by the applicant, or in a folder or in any other permanent form.
(c) Non-approved information. Nonapproved information must be presented in a manner acceptable to the Agency.
(d) Units. The units of measurement used in the Flight Manual must be the same as those used on the indicators.
EASA Very Light Aeroplane (VLA) regulations mandate a comprehensive Flight Manual onboard. This manual must detail operational information, performance characteristics (including environmental effects), and approved limitations. The manual needs clear distinction between approved and non-approved data, using durable materials and consistent units of measurement.
